This year is a leap year. Leap years are years with 366 days, instead of the usual 365. Leap years are necessary because the actual length of a year is 365.242 days, not 365 days, as commonly stated. Basically, leap years come every 4 years, and most years that can be evenly(平均地) divided by 4 have 366 days. This extra day is added to the calendar on February 29th which is known as a leap day. Why leap is used here? Leap means jump.
However, there is one exception to the leap year rule about century years. Century years are only considered as leap years if they are evenly divided by 400. Therefore, 1900 was not a leap year, but 2000 was a leap year.
A person who is born on February 29th may be called a "leapling" or a "leap year baby". In non-leap years, some leaplings celebrate(庆祝) their birthday on either February 28th or March 1st. In England and Wales or in Hong Kong, a person born on February 29th, 1996, will have legally(法律上) reached 18 years old on March 1st, 2014. If he or she was born in the United States, Taiwan or New Zealand, his or her legally birthday will come a day earlier.
There is a popular custom in some countries that a woman may ask a man to marry her on February 29th. If the man refuses, he then has to give the woman money or buy her a dress.
Since leap days are special days, people nowadays want to do something different within the 24 extra hours.Big jumps are the most popular ones.
Some salaried(领薪水的) workers want to get pay for their extra day’s work. But in my opinion, if you know why there is a leap day, you will get the answer to this problem.
The next leap year is .
A. 2014 B. 2016 C. 2018
American boy Toby is a leapling. Next year he will probably to have his birthday party on .
A. February 28th B. February 29th C. March 1st
Which picture is about popular custom on leap days?
A. B. C.
. Many people like to have a big jump on leap days probably because .
A. it’s a custom B. they are leaplings C. leap means jump
We can learn from the passage that .
A. 2100 will not be a leap year
B. every year leaplings celebrate their birthday on either February 28th or March 1st
C. it is necessary to pay the salaried workers for the leap day’s work
A ban on smoking in most public places goes into effect(效果) on Sunday in China - home to a third of the world's smokers. That means around 300 million smokers will no longer be allowed to light their cigarettes in the "enclosed public places." These include hotels, restaurants, theaters and public transport waiting rooms. The ban does not cover offices or factories.
The campaign is aimed at controlling(控制) the number of deaths from smoking-related illnesses, running at a million a year. According to the World Health Organization, more than 3,000 people die every day in China because of smoking. Health experts also hope it will help Chinese to raise the knowledge of the dangers of smoking.
But the new rules have been criticized because they do not include punishments(处罚) for those who choose not to obey them.Most people worry that Chinese smoking ban may have little effect.
Business owners often hate rules that force(强迫) them to ban smoking on their restaurants, bar, cafe..., because many customers(顾客) do not like the rules and complain. Often you find people smoking at the next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar.
It appears that many Chinese people don’t know the dangers of smoking. Research suggests only one in four knows the harm(害处) cigarettes or second-hand smoke can cause.
At the same time the government makes a lot of money from the sales of cigarettes by the state-owned firms that make and sell all tobacco products throughout the country.
The word “ban” in the first sentence means .
A. 禁令 B. 责骂 C. 罚款
Every year people died in China from smoking-related illnesses.
A. more than 3,000 B. about a million C. nearly 300 million
According to the new ban, smokers can smoke .
A. in the restaurants B. in the airport waiting room C. in the office

A. three B. four C. five

B. Smoking culture in China
C. Dangers of smoking in China
If you think texting(发短信) while walking is dangerous, just wait until everyone starts wearing Google's smart, Internet-connected glasses. These glasses can do anything you now need a smartphone or tablet computer(平板电脑) to do —and then some.
In Google's video, a guy wearing the "Project Glass" is shown getting subway information, making an appointment with a friend for coffee and showing the directions in a bookstore, all with the help of the glass. It ends with him playing an instrument for a woman and showing her the sunset through a video chat.
The "Project Glass" Google displayed have a sleek(光滑的) wrap-around look and appear nothing like 3-D glasses. In development for a few years, the project is the idea of Google X, the online search-leader's secret department that produced the self-driving car and could one day send elevators into space.
Google posted the video and short blog post about “Project Glass” on April 4th, asking people to offer feedback(反馈) through its Google Plus social network. By April 5th, about 500 people did, voicing a mix of amazement and concern about the new technology. What if people used it in cars and could not concentrate on driving? What about the effect on(对……有影响) your sight of having a screen so close to your eye?
Some asked for the glass, but Google isn't giving those out just yet. The company didn't say when normal people can expect to get their hands on a piece of Project Glass, but going by how quickly Google will come out with new products, it may not be long. Enderle said that it could be about six months to a year before wide tests are coming, and a year or more for the first version(版本) of the product.
